Description

Whether using heirloom china or a hot designer’s latest tableware collection–for an intimate dinner for two or a family feast for ten–set a table to impress. Faced with thousands of inspiring choices for table settings and decorations to fit every occasion, hosts and hostesses have never been more enticed to turn out both a great meal and an equally appealing stage on which to serve it. Author Caroline Clifton-Mogg knows that creating a table setting, no matter how simple or instinctive, is a form of interior decoration and design; so she has put together a masterful list of internationally acclaimed designers and decorators (such as John Saladino and Vicente Wolf), all of whom have showcased their signature styles for table settings. Set with Style offers an unprecedented cache of ideas that will ensure that entertaining your favorite guests is a pleasure instead of an overwhelming challenge; if your taste tends toward delicate crystal romance or even whimsical flea-market flair, you can achieve the most breathtaking visual treat on your tabletop. Illustrated with more than 300 lavish photos, Set with Style highlights: • The history of dining etiquette and traditions (from time- honored rituals to quirky customs) • Table-setting styles (from contemporary style with Peri Wolfman and Reed Krakoff to retro style with Glen Senk and Keith Johnson of Anthropologie) • Practical tips (from the creative use of accessories to what to look for when buying china, glass, flatware, and linen) from designers such as Sally Sirkin Lewis • A resource guide (featuring a directory of china and glass suppliers and table-accessory manufacturers) Whether you just want to spruce up an ordinary family supper or pull out all the stops for a high-class event, Set with Style will ensure that every occasion will be a beautiful one.

    • I Get It....But Not Really
I agree with the two prior reviewers that this isn't the best book to purchase if you're looking for new, innovative table settings. And, they are also correct to note that some of the settings featured "improperly" set tables (e.g., knife blades facing the wrong direction). The value that I found in this book was that it lead me on an imagination journey. The table settings in the book are not ones that I would replicate--the styles are not very contemporary and some of them are a bit old fashioned for my taste--but, I did see the vision behind many of the settings. When I look at books such as these, I enjoy feeling out the concepts even when the execution is poor. If the book has both terrible concepts and also terrible execution, then I feel very disappointed. After reading this book, I thought about the ways that I could make the table settings better and a bit more innovative. At the end of the day, I can't say that I'd recommend the book for viable information and ideas about table settings, but at the same time it wasn't a total loss for me. ... show more

    • Uninspiring at Best
I am baffled by why this book was ever published. The settings are actually dull and uninspired. In my opinion, the photos were not styled well: unironed tableclothes, a string hanging, a crooked plate (Herend's Rothschild Bird pattern), so many napkins on the right side of the dinner plate, knife blades facing away from the plate. Perhaps the author is trying to break with the above traditions and etiquette. I don't know. There are many better books out there--most of them. ... show more

    • How not to set a table
This book should be a collector's item - a book about table settings in which the photos consistently display incorrect settings! This author cranks out books by the score, but apparently no one ever properly edits them. In many of the photos, the desert silver is placed incorrectly (although the text does get it right). Also, as another reviewer pointed out, in several photos the napkin was oddly placed to the right of the plate under the knives. The photo stylist can't set a table and didn't read the text. Where was the author? The editor? Skip this book, unless you'd like to present it to someone as a joke. ... show more
